Booking fee

I ask new clients for a non-refundable £250 booking fee to secure a slot in my schedule. The booking fee will be deducted from the final invoice. See my terms and conditions for more information.

​How much will it cost?

​Prices for my services vary according to the size of your project, the medium in which the work takes place, the nature of the material, the requested turnaround time, and the level of intervention required. I offer three levels of service:
​

• Full proofread – for authors whose text has been previously copyedited
• Full line/copyedit – for authors whose text has not been previously copyedited
• Mini  line critique – for authors on a budget who need a sentence-level assessment and report

Dare Rogers, crime writer

'Louise is a consummate professional and the ideal person to turn to for help with a manuscript. She made my story so much better and offered many insightful suggestions. The most wonderful thing of all was the way she kept my voice intact.'

Larry Kahaner, thriller writer

'I love what you did to my manuscript. You found so much more than my line editor. I wish I had engaged you first. Your attention to detail, tracking and precision are much appreciated.'
